This print, like others from the series, utilizes a sophisticated black and white palette on a rich, burnished gold background, which beautifully contrasts and highlights the intricate details of the artwork. The composition of this lithograph possibly represents the elegance and structured harmony of a musical evening, abstractly conveyed through stylized musical instruments and flowing, rhythmic forms that suggest movement and sound. The visual elements might be interpreted as a symbolic representation of music’s flow and the dynamic nature of a live performance. Altman's technique of integrating Cubist influences with thematic content that resonates with cultural and artistic traditions is evident here, showcasing his ability to merge avant-garde aesthetics with deeper symbolic meanings. The limited edition of 250 copies underscores the rarity and cultural value of this piece, making it a significant collectible in both Jewish art circles and broader art historical contexts. This print not only highlights Altman's skills as an avant-garde artist but also reflects the vibrant cultural milieu of Berlin in the early 1920s, a hub for artistic innovation and expression.
